Creative asteroid names?
After finding out that we can spawn in Asteroids in Creative Mode by using Shift-F10, I wasn't very happy.
There is a massive list of really weird and obscure names for asteroids for eg. "China Corridor".
Like, what on Earth is that meant to mean?
Is there a guide to choosing the correct asteroid to spawn in?
Is there a list of details per asteroid? (by name)
Best Answer
I've found posts with name and images.
Here is the one I've found the more useful (because there's a scale on the images) :

Why do asteroids have weird names?
Different sightings of the same asteroid may have led to it being given many provisional designations over time. When there is enough information to calculate an accurate orbit, a permanent number is assigned to the asteroid.What is a large asteroid called?
The largest asteroid is called Ceres. It is about one-quarter the size of the moon and orbits the sun between Mars and Jupiter in a region called the asteroid belt. Unlike most asteroids, Ceres is spherical in shape.ASTEROIDS Size Comparison 🌑
